Amazing but cruel at the same time !

And this is the next model to be ranked the top 3-5-10 best figures in 2010. As mentioned above I give them together with figurines Any first place. At least in my opinion. It looks great. Besides, like other figures which came from your hand. I look forward to more pictures.

Ohhhh, how I wished I had that sort of talents

to you for sharing

there is only one by K&M but the quality is far lower than Ralf's fantastic red river hog.

Thank you very much my dear collector friends. I´m happy do you like this model.
It certainly is not as perfect as Ana's models, but I am very satisfied.
The scale is about 1:18. Is it become, unfortunately, somewhat larger than expected, it should be 1:20, but I think it's still ok.

Thank you for compliments!
Christophe, do not lose heart, I'm working on it.

Dear Ralf, I think when You start make molds from Your figures best solution is do it on unpainted sculpture. This way You not lose texture-the paint has it's thickness. Hope this will help, good luck in mold making Ralf!

Thanks for the extra photos! Nice figure!

Thanks for the new photos, and the picture with the Schleich models for size comparison.

So I want to paint an American black bear into an American brown bear variant(since American black bears have many different shades other than black, brown cinnamon, blue, white etc.).
How's the best way to strip figure of black paint(because brown paint to light to cover black)?

It looks great,Ralf!Have you ever thought of selling your creations?

Thank you Ana for your help, unfortunately it is too late now, the color is already on the models. But I think can repaint if the color should be solved.
